Christof,
Currently, I have:

Source: 3.6.0
Binaries: 3.6.1

Per instructions in the source, I compiled vc.net project successfully. It
resulted in pvengine.exe. I then tried to use that executable by replacing
my pvengine.exe in the binary distribution (3.6.1) with this newly compiled
one. It complains about:

"Editor DLL initialisation failed [LoadLibrary failed, code 0000007e]"

which I assume is caused since I am mixing my new 3.6.0 executable with the
editor library for 3.6.1. That is why I would like to get a hold of the
3.6.1 source code -or- 3.6.0 binaries.

Using the UNIX source code is most likely not going to work since the
problem that I am seeing seems to be a windows related issue (editor dll
and such) which tells me there must be some changes in the windows specific
areas of the code between 3.6.0 and 3.6.1.

Thanks,
Ali.
